When sending data to the CDU, it must be sent in block
form, followed by (with an appended) CR (carriage re-
turn) and LF (line feed). Normal communications pro-
grams, like Windows XP Hyper Terminal are sufficient to
get the job done.

the Program Manager):

tion of this manual).

icon.

COM2, depending where the external interface is).
